Sitting at 2nd Break with $5616 after getting down to 711 chips when my 99 lost to AKs

Still almost 1 hr of late Registration left, so far 1461 entries and 632 still running

All for the many people who thought the guarantees would fall short, at least for this event. Makes it easy.

no carbon bonus

I deposited into Carbon Poker on Monday (Nov 25th) and tried to enter the First Deposit bonus code they list on their site and it said not valid. No phone support, so I deposited anyway and treid to enter the code after and again. Just joined site a couple of weeks ago, never deposited. Contacted support through "contact support" form and 4 days later, nothing. I notice now the bonus code that was there 4 days ago is gone and it now says $600 bonus. Of course no phone support. On top of this, last night was in tourney #63898586 and it froze. This morning it is still there in its frozen state and no refund. Of course I am (was) in 5th with only 44 players left, (I am Condor76)
Very disappointed in Carbon Poker and will never deposit their again.

Was in #2 last night. Made a huge come back only to make the brain fart of my life. Went out like 400..Still mad at myself. I will be in #6 tonight and hope i do better. Dam games last to long. Take forever and cause me to crack.. I like games with like 200 or 150 people. These games with 1500 people and blinds rising so slow.. Ahhhh not easy... I need to get mind control in these long games. :thrasher:

Cheers Vito. I'm hoping the field won't be too tough. Haven't played PLO8 in a while.

Good Luck. I am in also.

Personnally, the way the structures are ATM, I would not be late registering too late, cause the blinds are just getting too high too fast (for these type), and it is better to try and get a chip stack in the lower blinds (IMO, of course)

Yea I'd go in on time. You wanna open your range early and build a stack. Might burn a few bullets that way but you don't want to be rebuying for 10-20bbs later on. Once you get a 3bi+ stack then I'd go back to your normal range. I wouldn't start late in a rebuy bc stacks are built pretty quickly.

the reason im not playing $11 rebuys is steep plus addon, at that price id play good poker and build it up but youre gonna have to get the addon if youre in it so I knew that MTt was min of $22 but closer to #33 or $44
Wish the game was non rebuy id be in it
